I was tripping through some you tube shorts and found an amazing video of young boy about to get a needle.

Needles. Another topic that I loath.

I have confessed my distaste of anything related to eyeballs and my general reluctance to visit the optometrist, as I spoke in an earlier post, but I also am somewhat queasy when it comes to needles.

Yes I know – I am a bit of a weak kneed type of guy, a bit of what we used to call a sissy. (Is that word allowed any more?)

But in my tripping over you tube shorts, I found this kid with an attitude! (see the embed below) Nothing of the standard style attitude of self serving, or reluctance to get the nasty deed done.

Nothing like my own experience.

No – this kid was all over getting this needle. Even though tears fell, he was not delaying the inevitable, nor he was whining about how unfair life was, or trying to find a way to get out of the pinch.

No. Through the tears his attitude was amazing, and it speaks of the power of our outlook on life. Somehow this youngin had been taught that life was for the living, that though some things may hurt, let’s keep pushing forward. Avoidance of difficult things is for those who do not want to live!

Watch this little boy tackle a problem, and tell me you don’t want to face troubles and difficult times with the same energy this youngin’ had.

Super impressive!
